Okay, I've edited the entire post so it's now one big link. You click, and you browse the store. There's far too much stuff for me to telegram to folk.

OOC: Sir! I am shocked, I looked at your selection of muffins, but I must say I find it lacking. You see you have neglected to mention the greatest of all muffins, the Lemon-Poppy muffin! Surely this is some sort of clerical error.

In all seriousness though, nice storefront. ;)

Excellent. Can any substantial number of them afford anything other than muffins?

Thank you Padmasa, I shall endeavour to correct that...

Okay, fixed that oversight.

The Order was Most Pleased with the results of our Muffin Basket; It made quite the impressive snack during important meetings!
The Order happily endorses the Muffins, and will forever be a loyal customer!
Buy your own basket today!

What level would you consider your AIE to have acheived. Do you think they are sentient yet, because if so its defintly slavery what you're doing.

...now THERES a load of BS if I ever heard it...
Buy muffins!

What level would you consider your AIE to have acheived. Do you think they are sentient yet, because if so its defintly slavery what you're doing.
*sigh*
They wouldn't count as AI if they were'nt sentient...
They have emotions and are fully capable of feeling loyalty, which they all do. They were created to serve and they are happy to do so.Not to mention the fact that no matter what you do you can hardly stop me doing it, can you?
Though this brings up a good point. AIs aren't for sale I'm afraid, unless you're buying an entire warship. Don't try and remove the AI then either. They're designed for running the ships.

And thank you Blackwolf Order for your endorsment of my muffins.
*sends you two large complimentary muffin baskets*

Length: 10m
Crew: 2 (1 pilot 1 gunner)
Weapons Systems
1 Turtle Class Gun System
3 Forward Torpedo lauchers
2 Rear-Facing Web Class Launchers

This is a small, fast, heavily armed atack boat, designed to get up close and personal with heavier ships before they have a chance to blow it out of the water. The strange winglike projections beneath the boat are in fact a hydrofoil, which is what allows the boat to travel so fast.
The Web Class launchers are what make the Shark class so deadly. Each launcher comprises of a block of nine smaller launchers, and both of the major ones are capable of swivelling and independantly tracking and attacking targets. The Web launchers fire small, magnetic mines. They are primarily used when the vessel is within a twenty metre radius due to their very short range. The mines latch themselves onto the ships hull and have a two second fuse, just enough time for the Shark to retreat before the mine blows a hole in the side of the enemy ship. On a good day, a barrage of these could lift the hull of a ship off it's keel.
Price: 35 million USD

Domination Class Stealthed Attack Submarine

24 Tomahawk 3 cruise missiles
48 Banshee Anti-Ship Missiles
24 Raven class nuclear missiles
The Domination class is the sucessor to the world renowned Supremacy stealth submarines. The new submarine combines improved versions of the stealth technology used in it's predecessor, along with upgraded firepower and some new technology to combat the one weakness of the Supremacy, being it's visibility in the IR band. With the white noise/sonar generators, the adaptive optics system covering the outer hull and the outer cooling system, this new version is slightly larger than it's predecessor, but more advanced machinery has allowed more space as crew number are reduced reducing the volume of crew quarters. The caterpillar drive used by both the Dominance and the Supremacy also ensures a lack of engine noise. The new Dominance class has improved on the Supremacy in every way, making it one of the most silent and deadly weapons available to the Ineffable navy.

30 Trident-3 Nuclear Missiles
The Slag class ballistic missile submarine uses a less advanced form of the stealth technology aboard the Domination class, more akin to that aboard the Supremacy class. However, combined with the deadly firepower of the Trident-3 missiles these submarines are in fact more dangerous. Each missile is capable of delivering a blast-yield of up to seventy megatonnes in a fashion sufficient to reduce a small to medium-sized nation to radioactive slag. The mere deployment of a Slag class submarine to the battlefield is considered a war-crime in some nations.

Tweedle-Dum/Tweedle-Dee class planetary assault mecha
The only Ineffable "Bigass Giant" mechs. Standing fifty metres tall, these are armed with two minigun-like uber-heavy versions of forcelances, one in each forearm. In the centre of these (i.e. the minigun bit spins aorund these) is a anti-starship class boser cannon. Two heavy gauss cannons (20" caliber) are deployable from the shoulders, and in the chest are a large and assorted variety of missiles, ranging from anti-tank rockets and missiles, to cruise missiles, to anti-aircraft missiles, to anti-city missiles with anti-matter or nuclear warheads. These have twenty micro-fusion powerplants, carried around the mechas body. A minimum of five are required to power the mecha at standard-power for a week, however, and the extras serve to increase the strength/firepower, or to extend the lifespan or serve as backups for battle-damaged plants. These mechas also contain their own GFG, allowing them to operate as small, heavily armed gravships for a short period of time, and for ease of deployment from orbit to planetside. The mechas are armoured with armour comparable to that on board a small capital ship, such as a frigate. These mecha are single-handedly capable of conquering a small nation. These are usually deployed by the Ineffable Empire in pairs of two (One Tweedle-Dum, One Tweedle-Dee.) These have no room to spare for a human pilot, instead they are piloted by an advanced AI, identical and occasionaly the same one (when deployed as part of an assault a part of an assaulting starship's AI will be that controlling the mechs) as those on board a starship.
Due to their awesomeness, these are not for sale.

Major Spacecraft

Heavy Cruiser (XMC)
http://aa.1asphost.com/AllyG/Capital%20Ships_files/image001.jpg
Glorious Heritage Class

Platform Overview:
The Glorius Heritage class Heavy Cruiser is the bright star of the Ineffable Space-Fleet. As the most visible symbol of the reach and power of the Ineffable Empire, command of these vessels is reserved for the best and the brightest. They are ideally suited for interplanetary combat, although they can play a significant role in planetary strike operations. During peacetime, XMCs are most often tasked with independent intergalactic exploration, charting and documenting the star systems of the Local Cluster. They are also the preferred platform for first contact missions, given their formidable combat capabilities and their ability to operate without a battlegroup.

http://aa.1asphost.com/AllyG/Capital%20Ships_files/image002.jpg
Three ships visible, along with a heavy cruiser, a dropship carrier and some smaller craft
Righteous Fist of Heaven Class

Platform Overview:
The Righteous Fist of Heaven class Deep Stand-off Attack Ship is the workhorse of the Ineffable combat fleet. Optimized for extreme-range destruction of hostile starships and planetary pacification missions, the DSA is long on offensive capabilities and short on defensive systems. Sensor systems on the DSA are dedicated almost entirely to battle management support, though they can be used in a pinch as additional extended range surveillance platforms. The DSA is also equipped with Low Observability technology, making them more difficult for hostile forces to target and destroy. DSAs rarely operate independently and rely on battlegroup assets for their self-defense and logistics support. When detached from their primary HCBG, DSAs run in "packs" of two.

Deep Stand-Off Attack Ship (DSA) II
http://www.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/leda_colony.jpg
Wrath of Achilles Class

Platform Overview:
Designed as a next generation successor to the versatile and venerable Righteous Fist of Heaven platform, the Wrath of Achilles is the newest and most advanced ship class in the Ineffable fleet. Incorporating many hard-learned lessons from the Martian activities and the latest in Ineffable technology, the Wrath of Achilles is the most lethal starship-killer ever built. Designed to operate with a minimum of crew and without fleet support behind enemy lines for extended periods of time, the new DSA forgoes such standard shipboard features as small craft, a Lancer contingent, and research capabilities in favor of missiles, missiles, and more missiles. The Wrath of Achilles is the most heavily armed starship launched by the Ineffable Empire, and her arsenal includes the latest in extreme-range kill vehicles as well as the usual suite of offensive and defensive missiles, AP guns, and PDLs. Additionally, the new DSA's distinctive, knife-like profile gives her a tiny sensor cross-section, making her nearly impossible for foes to detect. And any enemy who does manage to engage her will find that reactive shielding and cold plasma armor make the Wrath of Achilles exceptionally resilient and damage-resistant, while her lack of entry points (access to the ship is through a single, heavily fortified airlock) leaves the ship nearly invulnerable to boarding raids.

Long Range Surveillance Ship (LRS)
Eternal Vigilance Class

Platform Overview:
The Eternal Vigilance class Long Range Surveillance ship provides the eyes and ears for an HCBG and PRG. Equipped with multiple arrays of high-powered active and passive sensor suites, the LRS is ideal for providing early-warning of impending attack, enhancing battlegroup track correlation and improving the efficiency of offensive and defensive operations. Although lightly armed, the LRS is equipped with Low Observability technology, which reduces its vulnerability to attack. In addition, the smaller mass of the LRS combined with an impressive AP power plant allows for rapid acceleration and maneuver away from high threat situations. The LRS can also be employed as an effective intergalactic exploration platform, since its ability to gather and process data has as much utility for scientific pursuits as combat operations.

Group Defense Frigate (GDF)
http://aa.1asphost.com/AllyG/Capital%20Ships_files/image006.jpg
Part of the 7th Ineffable Spacefleet, deployed for planetary defence. One frigate is clearly visible just in front of the heavy cruiser. There is one at the very left of the picture also, with only the bow visible. Several DSA 1s are visible also. The odd looking ship above the heavy cruiser in the picture is an Atmospheric Attack Carrier (see next entry)
Pride of Kaldera Class

Platform Overview:
The Pride of Kaldera class Group Defense Frigate is the first line of defense for the HCBG and the PRG. Designed to track, target and destroy incoming enemy missiles and fighters, the battlegroup relies on the GDF commanders to ensure that the battlespace is clear for maneuver and attack operations. Each vessel is armed with limited offensive capabilities, but these capabilities are rarely used except in cases where the battlegroup has suffered significant casualties or the threat of hostile interdiction is low. With their superior deep sensing and target correlation abilities, GDFs can also serve as augmentation for the HCBG's extended range surveillance platforms. Although rarely deployed independently of a HCBG, large ad hoc networks of detached GDFs can be used as planetary defense assets in the unlikely event of invasion by hostile forces or massive missile attack.

Atmospheric Attack Carrier (AAC)
See previous pic
Siege Perilous Class

Platform Overview:
The Siege Perilous class Atmospheric Attack Carrier serves as the Group Operational Commander for a PRG during battlegroup operations. The AAC primary combat role is to destroy hostile tactical aircraft and defensive stations on the ground. It ensures that the skies are clear for dropships and other endo/exo-atmospheric craft during beach-head establishment, provides close air support (CAS) for Lancers on the ground, and destroys hostile ground forces in the interdiction zone. In addition, the AAC provides air traffic control for the PRG and directs all Ineffable Military movement onto the objective. Although it is nearly as large as an XMC, the space on board an AAC is devoted almost entirely to hangar space and crew quarters. As a result, the AAC has limited value as a non-combat support ship aside from directing ship-to-surface relief operations from other platforms.

Drop Ship Carrier (DSC)
See DSA1 pic
Victory's Crucible Class

Platform Overview:
The Victory's Crucible class Drop Ship Carrier is the primary strategic lift platform for the Lancer Corps. Each DSC serves as "home away from home" for a light regiment of troops plus their transport ships and equipment. With its large number of highly motivated soldiers, the DSC is uniquely qualified to provide manpower support for the distribution of goods and services. In addition, each asset can be quickly converted to provide strategic lift services for any HCBG or PRG element.

High Endurance Research Cruiser (HRC)
To Seek, To Find Class

Platform Overview:
The To Seek, To Find class High Endurance Research Cruiser is the heart of the Ineffable Empire's intergalactic exploration efforts. Capable of long-term, independent operations far from established Slipstream portals in uncharted regions of space, the HRCs are equipped for the study of any new scientific phenomenon or research opportunity. Although well armed in the interest of their own self-defense, these vessels are crewed primarily by civilian scientists and engineers. Traditionally, the CO of an HRC is also the Chief Scientist and is supported by an Argosy XO who oversees the crew and combat operations. An HRC can be recalled for combat duty, but only in the direst emergencies.

Small Spacecraft

Low Observable Scout (LOS) *
Major Tom Class

The Major Tom class Low Observable Scout is a small, lightly manned surveillance and electronic attack platform designed to mount C2W and INT operations inside a hostile sphere of control. Scouts often fly along with fighter craft on strike missions in order to provide additional "eyes and ears" for the squadron, as well as a high-powered jamming capability. These assets are equipped with a specially enhanced ES/A-9R package, a hyper-spectral scanner, a single PDL turret and a crew of three. In addition, the LOS is largely self-sufficient, capable of independent operations for weeks at a time without resupply or maintenance.
Price: 20 million

Supply and Maintenance Ship (SAM) *
Fingers of Dawn Class

The Fingers of Dawn class Supply and Maintenance Ship is the primary logistics and mobility support ship for the HCBG and the PRG. These assets never operate outside of a battlegroup, and rarely transit between theaters without an armed escort. Possessed of little in the way of self-defense systems beyond a few PDL turrets, the SAM is nonetheless one of the most important strategic components of the Argosy.
Price: 50 million

Interplanetary Mine Hunter (IMH) *
Seven Pillars Class

The Seven Pillars class Mine Hunter is designed to seek out and destroy pre-positioned threats to both HCBG and PRG assets. Deployed as needed based on the operational scenario, IMHs run in packs of four. The packs work as if they are a single asset, performing detailed searches of any perceived threat area with highly sensitive hyper-spectral imaging and synthetic aperture sensors. They are equipped with modified versions of the DM-5 defensive kinetic kill missile which can safely detonate mines from a distance.
Price: 35 million

Low Observable Special Warfare Ship (LSW) *
Asceticism of Action Class
The Asceticism of Action class Special Warfare Ship is a small, fast troop insertion and reconnaissance vessel designed to infiltrate behind the forward edge of the battle area (FEBA) or deep inside hostile territory. Information on the sensor and weapons load-outs for these assets are currently unavailable for public release.
Price: 80 million

Light Patrol Craft (LPC)
Non-Slipstream capable planetary defense craft that supplement and augment Home Guard defensive capabilities. LPCs are usually equipped with a single missile tube, several DM-5 defensive kinetic kill missiles and a crew of 10 or fewer. Several sub-classes of LPC are in use throughout the Ineffable Empire, depending on the particulars of the operational environment. LPCs are very fast, highly maneuverable and operate most often in squadrons of eight.
Price: 15 million

Heavy Patrol Craft (HPC)
Similar to the light craft, but equipped with 2 missile tubes, an AP cannon and an rapid-fire Rail-Gun turret. HPCs carry a crew complement between 20 and 30 people and usually serve as the command ship for a squadron of LPCs. Like the LPC, several sub-classes of the HPC are in use throughout the Ineffable Empire.
Price: 30 million

Shrike strike fighters (JL)
The Shrike is a fearsome high-speed attack craft used to support medium to long range anti-starship strike operations. Although not as maneuverable as a tactical fighter, the true advantage of the Shrike is its ability to put steel on target while avoiding retribution from hostile assets. It also provides the Group Operational Commander with the flexibility to hit the enemy from a number of angles at a tempo of his/her own choosing. The Shrike is equipped with 2 rapid-fire railguns, an AP cannon and 4 missile tubes which can fire Star Arrow smart missiles. Like the Centaur, it can be controlled either from the cockpit or remotely, though the Shrike requires both a pilot and a weapons officer in either mode
Price: 80 million

Systems Courier Ship (SCU) *
Alactritous Missive Class
The Alactritous Missive class Courier Ship is the foundation upon which timely inter-system military communications are built and maintained. The couriers are fast, low observable assets equipped with a single PDL turret and a crew of two. Unarmed civilian variants service the Commonwealth as a whole. These vessels can be temporarily commissioned into service during an emergency by a Group Operational Commander or the commander of an Argosy asset conducting independent operations.
Price: 10 million

Centaur tactical fighters (CTF)
The Centaur is the premiere space superiority fighter in the Local Cluster. Designed to conduct high speed, fire-and-forget combat maneuvers, it is unmatched in its ability to engage multiple targets at short and medium distances. The primary mission of the Centaur is to provide combat patrol support for Heavy Cruisers. It also flies tactical escort for strike fighters and conducts Suppression of Enemy Defense (SED) operations during interplanetary combat. These fighters are equipped with dual rapid-fire CTFcan be piloted either from the cockpit or remotely from a Flight Operations Center.
Price: 75 million

Phoenix atmospheric attack craft (PAAC)
The Phoenix is a combined fighter/attack craft designed to operate in Earth-normal atmospheres and high-orbit. Extremely maneuverable, the Phoenix is the primary Close Air Support and long-range interdiction asset for the Lancer Corps during planetary combat operations. It is also used to clear hostile skies of tactical fighters, to clear the way for incoming Lancer drop ships and establish air dominance in advance of the main planetfall assault element. The Phoenix is equipped with dual Point Defence Laser cannons and three missile tubes capable of firing up to 6 SAPM-6III Strike Arrow missiles.
Price: 200 million


Brilliant Carapace class ship
This Brilliant Carapace class ship is a tough, versatile defensive patrol craft employed mainly by Home Guard units. Headwaters of Invention Shipyards in the asteroid belt have built over 5,000 of these rugged little vessels, each with a crew of one.
Price: 40 million

Garuda class patrol craft
The Garuda class patrol craft is one of the Ineffable Empire's most popular small military vessels. Carrying a crew complement of three and combining speed and firepower in a low observability spaceframe, the Garuda is especially popular among Home Guard units and law enforcement agencies.
Price: 45 million

ES-115 Oracle heavy sensor/attack drones
Oracle is a semi-sentient, autonomous spacecraft that can carry up to four different modular sensor packages, all of which are based on larger shipboard counterparts. It is used to provide medium-to-long range target sensing for offensive and defensive operations, and can lead "packs" of smart missiles on search and destroy missions. In attack mode, the main body of the drone drops its sensor packages for later retrieval and accelerates at relativistic speeds toward a target. The resultant collision can produce an explosion that ranges between a few kilotons and a gigaton of destructive power.
Price: 70 million

ES-14 Janus light sensor/attack drones
Janus is similar to the Oracle drone in its mission specifications, but it is half the size and can carry only two of the modular sensor packages. The advantage of Janus is its relative speed and maneuverability, as well as the Low Observability technology it employs to disguise its position during combat operations. Because of its greater acceleration and speed, the relative mass that Janus can bring to bear in an attack can be far greater than the destructive power of Oracle. Janus is also more portable than its larger counterpart and easier to maintain, though it lacks a command and control capability for hunter-killer packs.
Price: 65 million
AES-111A Odin atmospheric sensor/C2 drones
The Odin drone re-packages the Oracle system architecture in a physical structure capable of atmospheric flight. It is used during all phases of planetfall warfare, including surveillance, reconnaissance and C2 applications. The Odin can accept smart missile control hand-off from the originating platform or another drone, and is also capable of leading hunter-killer packs on search and destroy missions. Unlike its spaceborne counterpart, Odin is not an effective choice for attack operations because of its low speed. However, the Lancer Corps records several instances where hostile troops surrendered to an Odin * even when no smart missiles or other attack assets were forthcoming. It is a testament to the effectiveness of the system and the Corps that their most reliable eye in the sky can produce victory without bloodshed.
Price: 40 million

AM9D Ung Tae drop ship
A combination armored personnel carrier, hover-tank and skiff, the Ung Tae is the foundation upon which the Lancer Corps has built its reputation. These drop ships are the primary delivery vehicles for Ineffable troops on the ground, capable of all-weather operations in up to 20 Gs. Each ship carries a platoon of Lancers and their basic combat gear, plus provisions for short-term accommodations as shelter. Though slow, Ung Tae can take a tremendous pounding due to multiple layers of ablative and reactive armor. In addition, each ship is equipped with a single direct fire AP gun turret and a deployable 150mm mass-driver cannon for indirect fire support at 1200 rounds per minute. Operating in concert, an entire division of AM9D¹s can coordinate mass-driver effects for simultaneous arrival on target with pinpoint accuracy.
Price: 150 million
--------------------------------------------------
Infantry Weapons/Defences
P-103 Submachine Gun $700
Standard weapon carried by Ineffable military forces. A light submachine gun with a high r.o.f. and a seventy-round magazine.
Force Lance $3,000
A primary tool and weapon of every High Guardsman (Ineffable spacemarine), the Force-Lance (commonly called the F-Lance) looks like a harmless metallic tube approximately 1/3 meter in length. But when deployed for battle, it can be extended into a quarterstaff almost two meters long, and when used in melee, the F-Lance can be charged with an electrical current, shocking anyone it hits into unconsciousness. But the F-Lance is more than just a melee weapon. It can also fire a plasma beam, in both the extended and retracted position, which can be used in ranged combat, or as a cutting tool or light source. Finally, the F-Lance can launch a number of self-guided effectors (see effector), allowing it to fill a multitude of rolls including that of a mortar.
Effector
Tiny attack drones launched by an F-Lance or similar weapon that can both target opponents and intercept incoming bullets and missiles.
Kree class staff weapon $1,000
Less advanced form of the force-lance, always in extended form and without effector launch capability, but fires much larger plasma blasts and is overall a more terrifying weapon. Maximum effective range is around seventy metres.
Penetrator class ultra-high-velocity shoulder-mounted railgun $2,500
A highly advanced infantry-borne railgun. This is a heavy weapon, best used from a stationary position though it can be used on the move. Mainly used as an anti-tank weapon, this fires very-high velocity projectiles of varying types. High-density kinetic rounds, armour-penetrating (standard anti-tank round), anti-personnel (two varieties, a single-person one that carries a timed charge, so that after entering the body it explodes and douses the enemies comrades with their former compatriot. The other has two fins that deploy after launch, designed for tearing through columns of infantry it can go through fifty unarmoured persons, killing all with a torso or head hit)
Scorpion class missile launcher $2,000
A heavy, shoulder-mounted weapon. Theoretically two can be used simultaneously by the one person, though this is difficult to say the least. Capable of precision shots or even rapid-fire (one missile a second), it is versatile. Can be fitted with a variety of missile-ammunition packs, which are semi-circular and slot into the side for easy reloading during combat. Up to 30 missiles per pack, depending on the missile size).
Boser rifle/heavy boser rifle
Boser weapons use anti-matter weaponary in a matter atmosphere. They fire an electromagnetic beam to clear a temporary vacuum and a small anti-proton beam down the middle of it, destroying the target with most often a single shot. Boser weapons have a distinctive purple flash, caused by the type of EM beam used. Boser rifles can be used against vehicles, mostly incapaciting/destoying anything less than a tank. Heavy boser rifles can chew through tanks and buildings like nobody's business. Heavy boser rifles also have a large ammo store.
Boser pistol
A small, handheld boser weapon. Low ammo capacity.
Bander $200
A small self-guided device. It is the size and shape of a Human throwing disc. When tossed, the bander unwinds into a series of coils, then wraps around its target, immobilizing it.
Bracer $5,000
A bracer is worn on the arm and can also be expanded into a physical shield for defensive purposes. In shield mode, a bracer's surface is optically reflective to reflect laser beams and is strong enough to deflect bullets and other kinetic projectile attacks. In addition to their combat capacity, bracers incorporate a number of sophisticated electronic devices, including portable computers, communicators and sensors.
Gauss gun $150
A common personal handgun. A gauss gun accelerates a smart bullet at supersonic speeds using electromagnetic forces.
Smart Bullet
Bullets, which act like tiny guided missiles, using sensors to home in on targets.

--------------------------------
Guns
Evil Class Gun System $5,000 (gattling-based CIWS)
Turtle Class Gun System $13,000 (10" gauss cannon, maximum r.o.f. 15 rpm)
Shriek Class SAM $20,000
Euronda class Missile Interceptor launchers $25,000
X-ray Laser turrets (300-500Mw) $500,000
An extremely powerful (200-500 megawatt), but short range (4 light seconds maximum) type of laser.
Anti-Proton Cannons $200,000
A weapon that shoots a stream of anti-protons at near light speeds (99 PSL). Anti-protons that hit mass (the enemy ship) destroy it. An AP Gun is not effective beyond about 4 light seconds
Medium anti-Lithium slug-launchers (8" rounds) $150,000
A medium velocity slug launcher, firing 8" 10kg rounds of anti-lithium
Heavy anti-Lithium slug-launchers (15" rounds) $300,000
A medium velocity slug launcher, firing 15" 25kg rounds of anti-lithium
Point Defence Lasers (30-50Mw) $50,000
A laser in the 30 to 50 megawatt range used to shoot down incoming missiles, fighters and drones. Also used by fighters who come in close contact with the enemy (1 to 3 light seconds) to cause damage to enemy ships.
Pulsed Plasma Gun
Similar to an X-ray laser (see X-ray laser) or point defense laser. A PPG requires less energy, but uses a consumable commodity.
ELS Missile tube
High-powered electro-magnetic missile tubes, which accelerate offensive and defensive loads into space. The ELS is necessary to allow for a safe distance between a missile and the originating starship when the missile activates its organic acceleration capability.

--------For SpaceCraft---------
Harpoon
Harpoons are missiles that trail a superstrong molecular cable (commonly known as a bucky cable) back to the launching ship. The bucky cable is then used to attach itself to other ships and pull them in. Harpoons are slower than missiles, and are commonly used to tow disabled ships or to grapple with them for a boarding action
OM-5 standard offensive kinetic kill missiles
The main offensive weapon in ship to ship combat. This device is about the size of an adult Human's fist and weighs about 1 kilogram. They move at 85 to 95 PSL and do atomic blast levels of damage when they hit, due to the kinetic energy of impact. Most have a range of 1 to 1.5 light minutes.
DM-5 standard defensive kinetic kill missiles
The main defensive weapon against incoming offensive missiles in ship to ship combat. Defensive missiles can also be used as enemy fighters, which are smaller missiles (about 1/3 of a kilogram). They move slower than offensive missiles (60 to 70 PSL), but with twice the acceleration. They have a range of only 5 to 10 light seconds.
PM-6 Star Arrow smart anti-ship missiles (2/5 high explosive;10kt, 1/5 fusion warhead; 400 mt, 1/5 fusion warhead, 2 Gt 1/5 anti matter, 5 grammes anti-lithium, yield unknown since I can't find anywhere that tells you how much energy is released in a normal explosion)
PM-6L Strategic Star Arrow smart anti-ship missiles (extended range variant)
Extended-range, high-endurance missiles that rely on a combination of ship, drone and organic active/passive sensor systems to find targets and destroy them. At kill speed, smart missiles can achieve upwards of 90 PSL. Smart missiles are most effective at less than one AU, but special variants can extend that range to 3 AU when combat operations permit missile control "handoff" from platform to platform. Smart missiles can be called back or neutralized in flight.
PM-6LII Strategic Star Arrow multiple independent kill vehicle (MIKV) variant
A special warhead that contains several independently targetable kill vehicles.
SAPM-6III Strike Arrow surface attack variant
PM-6LIV Strategic Star Arrow Slip Missile.
Extended-range, high-endurnace missiles that rely on a new sensor system to track their targets even while in slipstream. These missiles carry a small slipstream core on board and have deployable sliprunners, enabling them to travel in slipstream. Although AI cannot effectively negotiate the slipstream, these missile get around that by following their target through the slipstream at close range. That way, the negotiating is being done by the organic pilot on board the target vessel. These smart missiles can intercept and destroy their targets while in slipstream or after exiting the slipstream. These missiles carry an extremely heavy warhead, enabling them to take out a medium to large ship with one or two good hits.
Nova Bombs (they do exactly what it says on the tin!) [They have a warhead equivalent to over 50,000 teratonnes]
(Kill Vehicle: The component of a missile that contains the actual explosive.)

Scrubber
A filter that removes particles and contaminants from the air. Primitive scrubbers to remove CO2 from a vessel's air supply have been in existence since the days of ancient submarine warfare. Modern scrubbers use biological agents to turn CO2 into oxygen and defensive nanobots to repel enemy nanobot attacks

Suicide Switch
Device used by smaller ships in a battlegroup to masquerade as a high value asset, usually a Heavy Cruiser. The suicide switch mimics the sensor cross-section of the high-value asset, making the user a more attractive target for incoming offensive missiles.

False Target Generator
A countermeasure against active sensors generates a false target to the enemy sensors, which appears to be a duplicate of the real ship being targeted. Many false targets can be generated. In the future this may become an extremely effective countermeasure, but for now the false targets have difficulty fooling a well-trained operator.

Gravity Field Generator
Used on ships and missiles to create artificial gravity (when powered) to reduce effective mass for thrust, prevent the items inside from being squashed by the ships acceleration and to create an artificial gravity for the crew to operate in (see Technology, artificial gravity).

AP Power Converter
Converts the AP (see Technology, Anti-Protons) and mass reaction into electrical power for an item (such as the Gravity Field Generator or MPD Thruster) to use. AP power converters come in all different sizes for use by ships, fighters, drones, or missiles. Also known as an AP Reactor.

Artificial Intelligence Entity (AIE)
The sentient quantum computer systems at the heart of each High Guard starship. AIEs use continuous logic neural network systems with self-enforcing Feynman Influence Processors. During multiple platform operations, AIEs "negotiate" combat responsibilities based on established doctrine, rules of engagement and their commanders' intent.

Slipstream Tracking Device
This device uses a combination of a vessels engine emmitions, and its imprint left in the slipstream to track a vessel's path through the slipstream. This means that no matter where they run, you can track them (though it may take a while to chase if you don't have your own drive.)
A modified tracker can be sold with a pursuer drive built in which will take your craft in a pursuit course through slipstream. A version of this is used in the slipstream pursuit missile.

Drone
A small, unpiloted vehicle typically used as sensor and jamming platforms.
